HouseNotes – Keeping in Touch

HouseNotes, the newsletter of the Victorian Foundation for Survivors of Torture is produced three times per year.

Stories on our work with survivors of torture and their communities, political developments affecting people from refugee backgrounds and snapshots of the daily life of the Foundation House community, are compiled in each edition to help us keep in touch with the many supporters, members, donors and colleagues who are connected to our work.

HouseNotes is produced in electronic format only and is available to download here:
